摘要:
火山活动是天体内部热活动的表现,火山活动的形式和持续时间是探索行星环境和宜居性演化的重要方面.与内太阳系的其他天体一样,水星表面经历了大规模和长时期的火山活动,但是水星上的火山地貌、喷发机制、持续时间,以及火成岩的物质组成等特点和其他类地天体明显不同.水星上的火山活动主要发生在太阳系形成之初的10亿年内,溢流性火山活动形成的坑间平原和平坦平原在全球分布,是水星表面分布面积最大的火山物质.随着内部逐渐冷却,水星自约38亿年前后进入了全球收缩的热状态,岩石圈内的压应力阻碍岩浆上涌,大规模溢流性火山活动快速停止.距今约35亿年以来,水星表面的火山活动主要是挥发分驱动岩浆沿岩石圈内的薄弱带快速上升引起的爆发性火山活动,在全球形成了百余处火成碎屑沉积物.一些爆发性火山活动持续到水星地质历史的近期.水星火山活动的历史反映了独特的幔部动力过程,揭示了天体撞击作用对内部热扰动的影响,对水星的起源和演化具有重要的指示意义.
